A FATAL hiISTAKL.

THE Cleveland (Ohio) Press,
of February 23d, 1888, pub
lished an account Of a fatal
surgical operation which caused
a great commotlon among med
ical men throughout the whole
country, DR.. Thayer, the most
eminent surgeon in Cleveland,
pronouncing it scandalous. 1t
appears that Mrs. King had
been suffering for many years
from some disease of the stom-
ach, which had resisted the
treatment of all the physicians
in attendance. The disease
commenced with a slight de-
rangement of the digestion,
with a poor appetite, followed
by peculiar indescribable dis
tress in the stomach, a feeling
that has been described as a
faint "all gone" sensation, a
sticky slime collecting about
the teeth, causing a disagree
able taste. This sensation was
not removed by food, but, on
the contrary, it was increased.
After a while the hands and
feet became cold and sticky
a cold perspiration. There
was a constant tired and Ian
guild feeling. Then followed a
dreadful nervousness, with
gloomy forebodings. Finally
the patient was unable to re-
tain any food whatever, and
there was constant pain in the
abdomen. All prescribed rem.
edies failing to give relief, a
consultation was held, when it
was decided that the patient
had a cancer in the stomach,
and in order tosave the patients
life an operation was justif-
able. Accordingly, on the 22d
of February, 1883, the opera
ton was performed by DR..
Vance in the presence of Dr..
Tuckerman, DR.: Perrier, DR..
Arms, DR.. Gordon, DR.. Capner,
and DR.. Halliwell of the Police
Board. Tie operation consist.
ed in laying opea the cavity
of the abdomen and exposing
the stomach and bowels. When
this had been Gone an examin-
alton of the organs was made,
but to the horror and dismay
of the doctors there was no
cancer to be found. The pa.
tient did not have n cancer.
When too late the medical men
discovered that they had made
q terrible mistake; but they
sewed the parts together and
dressed the wound that they
had made, but the poor woman
sank from exhaustion and died
in a few hours. How sad it
must be for the husband of this
poor woman to know that his
wife died from the effects ola
surgical operation that ought
never to have been performed.
If this woman had taken the
proper remedy for Dyspepsia
and Nervous Prostitution flor
this was what the disease really
was), she would have been liv-
ing to-day. SHAKER EXTRACT OF
RooTs, or SEIGEL's CURATIVE
SYRUP, a remedy made ex-
pressly for Dyspepsia or Indi-
gestion, has rcstor Il many such
cases to perfect health after all
other kinds of treatment have
failed. The evidence Of its
efficacy in curing this class of
cases is too vo.unirous to be
published hoe; but those who
read the PUBLISHED evidence in
favor of this dyspept;c remedy
do not question its convincing
nature, ;ai the article has an

The Supreme Court of the Uni.
ted States, on an appeal from de-
cision by tfe Supreme Court Of
Tennessee, has decided that the
tax imposed by various States,
cities and counties on commercial
travellers is unconstitutional and
Illegal. The opinion of the court
was rendered by Justice Bradley.
Its chief points were as follows:
/. The constitution gives to Congress
the power to regulate commerce among
exclusive whenever the subjects Of it are
OF one uniform system or plan Of regu-
lation.
2. Where the power OF Congress to reg
ulate is exclusive its failure to act indi-
Gates its will that the subject shall be
left free from any restriction or imPosi-
tions, and any regulation by the States,
except in matters Of local concern only.
is repugnant to such freedom.
8 The only way In which commerce
between the States can be legitimately
affected by State laws is when by virtue
OF its police power and its jurisdiction
over persons and property within its
limits, State provides for the security
of life, limb, health. comfort and property.
or when it does those things which may
incidentally affect commerce. But in
making such internal regulations State
cannot impose taxes upon persons passing
through or coming in merely for q tenn
porary purpose. In the matter Of inter-
state commerce the United States are. in
the opinion of this court, but one country,
and are and must be subject to one
system OF regulations and not q multi
tude Of systemA

Nearly ten years have elapsed since
Gov. Nicholls held the helm of the

difficult to answer in categorical man
ner 10y reason Of the radical and null
fitarious reforms that were accompii
ed ia the three years If his service, all
of them having in view the cutting
down of useless expenses and reducing
the burden of taxation.
The editor Of the Minden Democrat
Tribune has unearthed speech of
Hon. E. ID. Write, then in the Senate,
delivered before that body on March
10, 1873. which in terse and eloquent
terms sets firth some of the greater
reforms effected. A careful examine

have not heen built by any one con-

And this correction of abuses was
not colnI,assed without difficulty. In
deed. Judge White, in his opening re-
marks, says:
'Mr. President, VIXEN coming into
power this gUvernmeDr succeeded to u
deplorabIe heritage. Every thing was
siisarranged and in confusion. Every
thing was to I've reformed. A reform
difficnit to obtain because ut constitu-
iionai and other restrictions. but which
was promptly undertaken in all de-
partments Of the government, with
results that now propose to set forth"
The speaker then lows this up by
giving the facts aud figures. In the
Executive Department $3.50 was
saved ia salaries alone. Think of an
officer emitting down the salaries Of his
own office! Yet Gov. Nichous did it..
In the Auditors office saving Of $50, :

prisrs Of the Office for 1873, and of

On Sunday night, 18th inst,
some rufians made a midnight at
tack on firm of Jews doing bust
ness at Evergreen and Cottonport,
Avoyelles parish, fred a volley into
their houses from shotguns and
r.fles, fortunately without doing
injury to any one. It is said to
have been the work of business
rivals who desired to run them out
of the country. The good people
of the parish have held mass
meeting, denouncing the perpe-
traitors of the outrage and pledg-
ing their support to the victims.
This is as it should be. Let all
such cowardly scoundrels be pun
ished, and let the world at large
understand that life and property
are as secure in Louisiana as in
any State of the Union; that our
people have moral strength and
determination, and always run such
villains to earth and see that they
get their deserts before the law.

Editor Collar Ck,S~icis:
Since the confirmation of Mr..
Trotter as Recorder of Deeds for
the District of Columbia, rumor
has been rife upon the subject of
the course which the President
will be likely to pursue with ref
erence to ex- Recorder Matthews.
Those who are in q position which
should enable them to speak au-
thoritively upon the subject assert
that the President has determined
to find place for him, and it is
thought that he will either be APP
pointed to the position of Com
missioner of Patents, made vacant
by the resigation Of Commissioner
Montgomery, or that he will
succeed Mr.. Graves as Chief of the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing,
each Of which positions command
a salary of $500 per year. There
has been a general clamor, espe-
cially among the Southern Demo-
Gratis, for Mr.. Graves scalp for
some time past, and it is possible
that the President will SO far yield
to the pressure as to reinstate Mr..
Graves in his former position AZ
